f5x5x5 is a kinetic light sculpture conceived of and realized by the belgian design studio lab[au]. the project
was most recently installed in the basilique de saint denis in paris for nuit blanche 2009. the design consists
of fixed and kinetic aluminum frames that can move randomly or be programmed for use as a low
resolution display. the piece is designed as a framework, taking inspiration from software development
frameworks. in the case of the project, the framework is a five by five module which is repeated five times
to create the final form. one side of the work is white, while the other is black. the 125 pixel screen works
on binary language and can transform captured data from the physical environment into kinetic actions.
